Analyzing the Impact of Chinese Military Development to theIndian Arm Force in 2015-20201. Introduction China built its economic and political interests over the Indian Ocean and actively develops its hegemony through economic and military power in the South Asian region. In contract to China, India began to rise from the state of a country that has a poverty line and even backwardness in education is quite high with increasing economic growth every year and even became the country with the third largest economy in the world in GDP according to IMF data in 2019 (Rahadian, 2019). India's growth and development are linked to neighboring South Asia as regards India's role as a leader in the region. For India's harmonious relations in the region have a positive impact in Asia. China's influence in South Asia has affected India's interaction patterns with its surrounding neighbors. With a series of investments and cooperation China gradually began to reduce the region's dependence on Indian leadership in South Asia (Anggara, 2015). But in the course of the success of its military power, India is not always followed by support from all parties. Good diplomatic relations will not be able to run smoothly because currently bilateral relations between India and China are starting to run towards pragmatic cooperation but are still in the development of stagnant relations and even accompanied by a trust deficit (Muratbekova, 2017). On the other hand, Currently India and China are two countries that are giants in the world economic cooperation. China with branding as the world's second-largest economic force in 2020, has an ambition to defeat the United States and expand its influence in Asia. It indirectly created a security dilemma between the two countries. Before China and India were active in developing its hegemonic state, historically India China was in the state of the rivalry of the security dilemma. (Sebayang, 2019).This situation of security dilemma has historically been triggered by the Kashmir conflict, the territorial disputes of Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin, heated tensions over Tibet, the Nathu La conflict, and the war in Tulung La. Things got even more heated when The Times of India reported on a new conflict that was still hot: on August 18th, 2014 the Chinese army had entered the Ladakh region of India, crossing the Line of Actual Control for 25 to 30 km with a provocation flag stating that the area belonged to China. And a few years later there are still some territorial disputes such as this latest one, in June 2020 it was reported that Indian troops crossed the border of the LAC (Line of Actual Control)
